In this episode, Ashley shares her biggest takeaways from the Colorado Building Science Symposium, the International Builder Show, and other industry gatherings she’s attended this year. What keeps surfacing again and again? Building and renovating a home is a team sport and when we forget that, projects suffer.

Ashley unpacks why leaning entirely on your builder is a setup for misalignment, how vague words like “healthy” can derail your vision, and why early planning around air sealing, insulation, and mechanical systems matters more than most homeowners realize. She also explores a powerful truth: whether you intend to or not, you are practicing building science every time you change your home. This episode is for homeowners who want a healthier, more resilient home and who are ready to take responsibility for defining what health truly means to them.

If you’re building, renovating, or even just questioning how your home works, this conversation will help you think more strategically, collaborate more intentionally, and advocate for yourself with clarity.
